LARAMIE, Wyo. – Wyoming has hired Northern Colorado’s Jeff Linder to replace Allen Edwards as head coach. Linder has led the Bears to three straight seasons with over 20 wins.
He was 80-50 over four seasons at Northern Colorado, including 22-9 this past season.
Linder was named Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year during the 2018-19 season, when he led the Bears to a 15-5 conference record.
Linder also has coached at Boise State, the University of San Francisco, Weber State and Colorado. Linder says he will make recruiting for Wyoming a priority.
Wyoming fired Edwards after back-to-back losing seasons, including a 9-24 finish this season.
